First steps
Your instance is up — time to build something.
Sign in to your instance
Open your instance URL from the console (e.g. https://org-acme.nexp.dev) and
sign in with the credentials shown in the console. You'll be asked to set a
new password on first sign-in.
A quick tour
The admin panel is organized around apps. You start in the core app:
- Tables — the schema designer. Create tables, columns, computed fields and toggle row-level security.
- Pages — the UI builder: compose dashboards from widgets bound to your data.
- Forms — standalone forms with configurable fields and server-side submit logic.
- Users / Roles / Groups — your instance's identity realm.
- Update Sets & Releases — change capture and promotion.
Build a tiny app in five minutes
- Create a table. Tables → New table → name it
task, add columnstitle (text)anddone (boolean). - Add a few rows from the table's data view.
- Read it over the API — every table is instantly served by the data API:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
"$DATA_API/v1/acme/core/task?limit=10"
- Put it on a page. Pages → New page → add a table widget and bind
it to
core.task. The widget's data source runs on the server — visitors only ever receive rendered rows they're allowed to see.
